Jethro’s Advice
1 And aJethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father-in-law, heard of all that bGod had done for Moses and for Israel His people—that the Lord had brought Israel out of Egypt.
2 Then Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took aZipporah, Moses’ wife, after he had sent her back,
3 with her atwo sons, of whom the name of one was1 Gershom (for he said, b“I have been a stranger in a foreign land”)
4 and the name of the other was1 Eliezer (for he said, “The God of my father was my ahelp, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh”);
5 and Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness, where he was encamped at athe mountain of God.
6 Now he had said to Moses, “I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons with her.”
7 So Moses awent out to meet his father-in-law, bowed down, and bkissed him. And they asked each other about their well-being, and they went into the tent.
8 And Moses told his father-in-law all that the Lord had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, all the hardship that had come upon them on the way, and how the Lord had adelivered them.
